* “What type of woven sheet?” He said: “A Shamlah.” She said: “O Messenger of Allah, I have woven this with my own hands for you to wear.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it, since he needed it. He came out to us wearing it as a lower wrap. So-and-so the son of so-and-so.” – a man whose name he told that day – said: “O Messenger of Allah, how beautiful this sheet is! Let me wear it.” He said: “Yes.” When he went inside he folded it up and sent it to him. The people said to him: “By Allah, you have not done well. The Prophet ﷺ wore it because he needed it, then you asked for it, and you knew that he would not refuse anyone who asked him for something.” He said: “By Allah, I did not ask for it so that I could wear it, rather I asked for it so that it could be my shroud.” Sahl said: “And it became his shroud the day he died.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3555)

bukhari:1277ʿAbdullāh b. Maslamah > Ibn Abū Ḥāzim from his father > Sahl

A woman brought a woven Burda (sheet) having edging (border) to the Prophet, Then Sahl asked them whether they knew what is Burda, they said that Burda is a cloak and Sahl confirmed their reply. Then the woman said, "I have woven it with my own hands and I have brought it so that you may wear it." The Prophet ﷺ accepted it, and at that time he was in need of it. So he came out wearing it as his waist-sheet. A man praised it and said, "Will you give it to me? How nice it is!" The other people said, "You have not done the right thing as the Prophet ﷺ is in need of it and you have asked for it when you know that he never turns down anybody's request." The man replied, "By Allah, I have not asked for it to wear it but to make it my shroud." Later it was his shroud.

Shahl bin Saʿd said, "A lady came with a Burda. Sahl then asked (the people), "Do you know what Burda is?" Somebody said, "Yes. it is a Shamla with a woven border." Sahl added, "The lady said, 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I have knitted this (Burda) with my own hands for you to wear it." Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it and he was in need of it. Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to us and he was wearing it as an Izar. A man from the people felt it and said, 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Give it to me to wear.' The Prophet ﷺ s said, 'Yes.' Then he sat there for some time (and when he went to his house), he folded it and sent it to him. The people said to that man, 'You have not done a right thing. You asked him for it, though you know that he does not put down anybody's request.' The man said, 'By Allah! I have only asked him so that it may be my shroud when I die." Sahl added, "Late it was his shroud."

That man said, "I just wanted to have its blessings as the Prophet ﷺ had put it on, so l hoped that I might be shrouded in it."

The Prophet ﷺ sat with the people for a while and then returned (home), wrapped that waist sheet and sent it to him. The people said to that man, 'You haven't done well by asking him for it when you know that he never turns down anybody's request.' The man replied, 'By Allah, I have not asked him for it except to use it as my shroud when I die." Sahl added; "Later it (i.e. that sheet) was his shroud." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2093)

* “What type of woven sheet?” He said: “A Shamlah.” She said: “O Messenger of Allah, I have woven this with my own hands for you to wear.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it, since he needed it. He came out to us wearing it as a lower wrap. So-and-so the son of so-and-so.” – a man whose name he told that day – said: “O Messenger of Allah, how beautiful this sheet is! Let me wear it.” He said: “Yes.” When he went inside he folded it up and sent it to him. The people said to him: “By Allah, you have not done well. The Prophet ﷺ wore it because he needed it, then you asked for it, and you knew that he would not refuse anyone who asked him for something.” He said: “By Allah, I did not ask for it so that I could wear it, rather I asked for it so that it could be my shroud.” Sahl said: “And it became his shroud the day he died.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3555)

" عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ: جَاءَت امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ الله ﷺ بِبُرْدَةٍ، قَالَ سَهْلٌ: هِىَ شَمْلَةٌ مَنْسُوجَةٌ فِيهَا حَاشِيَتُهَا، فَقَالَتْ: يَارسُولَ الله جِئْتُكَ أَكْسوُكَ هَذِهِ، فَأَخَذَهَا رَسُولُ الله ﷺ مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا، فَلَبِسَهَا، فَرآهَا عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابهِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ الله مَا أَحْسَنَ هَذِهِ اكسُنِيهَا، فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَلَمَّا قَامَ (*) رَسُولُ الله ﷺ لاَمَهُ أَصْحَاُبهُ، وَقَالُوا: مَا أَحْسَنْتَ حِينَ رَأَيْتَ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ أَخَذَهَا مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ سَأَلْتَهُ إِيَّاهَا، وَقَدْ عَرَفْتَ أَنَّهُ لاَ يُسْأَلُ (* *) شَيْئًا فَيَمْنَعُهُ، قَالَ: وَالله مَا حَمَلَنِى عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِلَّا رَجَوْتُ بَرَكَتَهَا حِينَ لَبِسَهَا رَسُولُ الله ﷺ لَعَلِّى أُكَفَّنَ فِيهَا ".
